Fuel guage

[brad]

2004 rx warrior fuel gauge flashes as though it is low on fuel upon start up and keeps flashing for the first mile or two of driving. Then slowly corrects itself. The tank is full though. Any know what causes this?

Mine did same thing. It was the sending unit. Very easy fix

 

[brad]

Define what the fix is. Does it require a new sender, or are there some contact points that can be cleaned up? How do you do it? Thanks for the reply. Any help is greatly appreciated cuz it's much cheaper than the local dealer

In the back of the fuel tank on the top its located. It has four screws. Take them out and unplug it. Its a float. It is sealed no way to really fix it u just have to replace it.

are you sure its the fuel light and not the warm up light?

It's definitely not the warm up light, that's works as it should, but the low fuel light flashes intermediatly all day long.
